Memoir Writing Podcast With David Leite

October 8, 2015

David Leite of Leite’s Culinaria.

WHILE GOOD FRIENDSHIP IS NOURISHING, sometimes it is also delicious. Such is the case with my bond with David Leite, whose humor and grace enriches my life, whose writing is simply divine, and whose cooking is damn good. You might know David through his two-time James Beard winning website, Leite’s Culinaria. (Leite, BTW, rhymes with eat. But of course). What you might not know, though, is that David is delicious fun to talk to, which is why when he asked me to make a memoir writing podcast with him, I lapped up the invitation. And I think I hooted. Yup. Hooted. That’s not on the podcast, though much else is.

And if that is not enough, after you listen in, tell me what you liked about the podcast and enter a chance to win a signed copy of David’s book, The New Portuguese Table, winner of the IACP 2010 Julia Child Award for First Book. Listen up, leave a comment below and cook on, folks.

This book leaves me hungry. I think of you and the class each Wednesday. Preparations for my journey are in full swing. I recently met with a group of Military Chaplins and sat in a healing circle with them. They carry the message of KIA’s to the surviving family. Poignant stories!!!
Hope to see you soon.
